Some users are still having problems with the pop-up login. I think they are actually getting 403s because of the CSRF protection. So I have modified the base template to always have a javascript variable called csrf_token available when they aren't logged in. The ajax_login.js script was then modified to send this value with the ajax post. Fingers crossed.

.panel_wrapper {height:85px;}
.panel_wrapper div.current {height:85px;}

/* IE */
* html .panel_wrapper {height:100px;}
* html .panel_wrapper div.current {height:100px;}
